Murphy's law...ya know!...
I am sooo trying NOT to fall asleep...man these pain killer sure are strong...
but effective...however I really do not like to depend on them *sigh*

Off to make a card for the next challenge....Dea ...I think YOU are going to like it....
*wink wink* ;o)

Love the card, I love the image, what stamp is that? Great job with the colouring and the layout. You know what I love so much about this technique, you can make mistakes on your colouring and no one notices. In my image of the father son, I first coloured the boys arm in green, then I coloured over it and no one noticed. I find it hard to see because of the cover.

It all depends on how late the gallery moderators are up, sometimes they post my cards early Sunday morning - 3:00 am my time but it is 12:00 pacific time so it really depends on who is moderating and if they are still up.

but I uploaded my card on a SATURDAY evening...
it just never happened before...

If you uploaded the card past 9:00 pm your time and the moderator was from the East coast that night it could be 12:00pm or 1:00 am depending on where they lived. They moderate only until they go to bed right....

My brayering isn't the best, but this is my first attempt with the silhouette stamps.

Kathy, your card looks great with the subtle coloring. That is a cool silhouette stamp. I also struggle with the brayer, but you know what they say . . . practice makes perfect - or at least better. Ha!

Paola if you are still taking pain meds then it is too soon to go back to work, You are supposed to be off pain meds for at least three full days before returning to work. Pain meds are dangerous because you can overdue it or hurt yourself and you won't know until the meds wear off and then it is too late. Don't push it my friend it will only take longer to heal.

Good morning to all.. The bridal shower for my Grand daughter is today, so should be a fun day..... I actually sat out on the deck this morn with my coffee... I love the morning sun.
I do wonder how some of you keep track being involved in so many challenges.. i have trouble keeping up to two....lol...
I will post, later this week, some of the wedding cards I did this past week ....
Have a good day

I keep a little list of the challenges that I normally participate in. The keyword, a few words about the requirements, the date, then check it off when I make a card. Sometimes it takes me a few weeks to get back to a particular challenge, but I can just look at my list without going through the forums to find the info. I play in CAS, TLC, SC, YCDI, Mixability, WT use it, F4A, and QFTD, but not all of them every week. I usually get to at least two a week. I also do the monthly CCC Christmas cards. Then I love doing the VSN and special challenges like HYCCT. I only wish I could do more challenges - if only I didn't have anything else to do with my life! I also teach Sunday School, work one day a week, and direct the church Card Ministry, etc., etc.

Where is CAS challenge? If that is Clean and Simple, that's just my style! Need to check that out!

I was thinking the same thing about the coloring under the dryer sheet. I'm not totally happy with my first effort so I'm going to make a second card ...eventually. This time, I'm going to use more vivid colors on the image. That's the great things about challenges - I always learn something.

Hello ladies....phew it's hot over here. I learned how to build a bird house today in Kaitlyn's class, what a chore that was, I think I'll stick to sewing. It was fun though helping the kids out.
Hope everyone is enjoying their start of the weekend.

Hello Lovelies ♥
For this week challenge I encourage you to enjoy 'punching' out!
Think of using punches, sizzix dies, nestabilities etc...
The only thing stamped on your card should be the sentiment,
nothing else. (IF you chose to use one)

**Enjoy creating using punches..
♥ HAVE FUN! ♥ Can't wait to see YOUR cards! ♥
***ALL partecipants names will be entered for a draw....(1 name per card ...
you make 1 card U'll have a chance....
2 cards 2 chances...etc...) my youngest Gdaughter will randomly pick a
and that person will receive a lil prezzie from me ;o) ***
